Relentless

About Me

At the beginning we were just friends who all lived in Joensuu, all had played in bands and all liked, besides punkrock, different types of rock..n..roll, from fifties rockabilly to younger stuff, like psychobilly. So almost like an accident we got together and thoughed that it would be fun and challencing to play some rockabilly inlfuenced punk together. First time we played together was some where around the year 2005, I gues. From the beginning we noticed that things worked out very well and so we kept meeting at the rehearsel place. We even played one gig under a name "Prisoners of society" with only performing early recordings of The Living End. After the gig we thoughed about writing our own songs and deceated to continue rehearsing.Spring 2006 we had six songs ready and we wanted to go to studio. Those six songs became is our self published –ep “Broken life”. With the help of our new cd we got the chance to play lot of gigs around Finland, get to know people and have good time. After summer 2006 it was clear that we are gonna go on with relentless full throttle.The sound of Relentless comes from the hard work of three players. As the "style" might look like something from "A Rebel without a cause", Relentless is not a cover band playing '50s rockabilly, but a true unique group, writing their own stuff. Players' former bands include such names as Lucky bastards and Rudeo and influences vary from The Clash and Johnny Cash to Stray cats. Double bass is big part of the bands sound as it brings the roots of rock music to the sound of Relentless.Summer 2007 an independent record label Fast Rock Factory published Relentless' full lenght debyt album "Time of fools" and through out the reviews it got good response. When playing every gig like it's the last one, year 2008 opened new connections and contacts. Future looks bright and most important: "The Future is unwritten" -Joe Strummer
